As a substantial part of the events or omissions giving rise to the claim occurred in the Eastern District, venue properly lies in that district. See 28 U.S.C. § 1391(b). Accordingly, this case is TRANSFERRED to the United States District Court for the Eastern District of California. See 28 U.S. C. § 1406(a). The Clerk shall terminate any pending motions and transfer the entire file to the Eastern District of California. IT IS SO ORDERED. DATED: 8/3/10 JEREMY FOGEL United States District Judge
